now the years events are rapidly approaching im just curious to see what cars are around.

Does anyone have any fast projects that may be finished for this year, or any improvements that have been made to cars over the winter months.

my car now works-mostly

This is more of a list of things I've bought to fit as it's slow progress atm.

KAD rear swingarms;
Superfins;
yellow dot springs;
steering column with UJs;
sintered clutch plate;
clutch slave cylinder and braded hose;
TranX LSD;
Rose jointed tie bars;
Megasquirt ECU.

So, maybe a bit more mid-range power owing to Megasquirt, a bit less weight and some more grip.

I might get into the 13s.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I got some seats late last year, i want to mount the P side so it doesn't move, that would be a big improvement. (for them anyway)
